New low point in my life

Over the years and the last few months in particular my life has hit some low points but tonight is the lowest of them all.

You might recall that I was taking a party of fellow archaeology fiends away this week? Well to be honest that went stonkingly well, no disasters and a group of happy people returned home this evening. I returned to my temporary abode of course only to find that my presence was, to say the least, not encouraged, well to put it more correctly, not appreciated at all.

And so, here I am, not quite penniless but without more than the clothes i'm stood in, contemplating a short life on a park bench. Is this the end for me? I dunno, i've no idea where I go from here, I sort of had a plan that required the roof for a few more days but i've lost that and everything else now.

I thought i'd post this just so you know that I never intended to just disappear but that's looking quite likely. TBH I don't even know whether i'll see the new day.

So for now, now, least temporarily, so long, i've enjoyed the ride, i'd like to think i'll be back but it's not looking promising.

Similar feelings

I can totally relate. I feel the same way in my current housing situation. Today was the worst though... If you want or need someone to talk to, I'm around.

Anyone?

Is there anyone who lives close enough to maybe help Maddy out? A place to stay for a night or so? I'm six thousand miles away and if I sent money via Paypal it wouldn't arrive before Tuesday.

Gaby fans in the UK or EU?

Hang in there, luv.

Hugs,

I truly wish I could help Hon........

But we need to get you to the US in order to be of any assistance.

I can offer a roof, a warm bed, and a comfortable home - but it is in central Pennsylvania.

If someone local can help you short term, perhaps we can get you across the pond.

Hopefully she can take you up on it

She needs money now to put her stuff in storage or at minimum transport a bike over.

The lack of savings on her part is the major complication as she seems to be saying she can’t stay at a paid place.

There must be churches that support such things though.

So, then the cost of transport.

She seems depressed so that complicates it a lot.

Currently it looks like she just has to get some financial help, batten down any non-survival spending and hopefully get to safety.

Accomodation info from Beverly.

Don't you DARE throw yourself in any bloody canal!!!!! I have a house, I have an ensuite bedroom and I have a car and trailer to drag you down Sarf' to Brizzle if'n you needs it. Beverly. (You know, the crazy bitch!!, with bikes and a garage for you to park your bikes) Sadly I haven't buried any females face down in the concrete!!!!

Oh! By the way, it's free until you can organise housing benefit. You'll have to chip in with food though once you've got some bunce together!!!! W've gor broad-band and WiFi as well. Well we would have if I'm posting here, wouldn't we.

My housemate in the other ensuite is okay about it, but she's from Yorkshire. (Hope you're okay wi' tykes!!!!!) LOLOL

Willing to help... but how to do it?

I love Mad's writings and attended the 2013 Gabifest, the main reason for my 2 week tour of GB. Could you possibly set up a Patreon page? Or how about a GO Fund Me page? Or even something on Paypal? I'd willing contribute to any of these to help out!

Boys will be girls... if they're lucky!
